Welcome to this little mini-series on Cracking the Growth Code®. In part 1, we're diving into what type of business owner are you?
Do you ever feel like there’s something holding you back from reaching your next level of success? You know you’re meant for more and you wish you could crack the growth code.
The big lesson I’ve learned on my up-and-down business journey is that there are phases to business and we are different people in each. But when we take the time to pinpoint where we are and identify with who we are and align who we need to be, we can get unstuck and move to the next level.
Cracking the Growth Code® is easy once you’ve cleared the path of what’s keeping you stuck where you are.
I believe that business can be the biggest teacher in self-development. It’s one of the reasons I love business so much because GROWTH is an important value to me.
With your permission, let me walk you through the ‘types of business owners’ so you can see where you are now, who you need to be, and what you need to do to have all that you want.  And I know that growing your business on your terms is on that list.

Are you ready to nail your marketing and scale it in 2024?
Marketing mastery and sales systems and what move you away from being stuck and reactive. I believe that if you crack those two pillars then there is no business problem you can't solve and there isn’t a goal you can't achieve. So in three months, let me walk you through nailing your marketing, and building out the roadmap to scale your marketing. And once you have your tailored marketing plan with a pantheon so you never have to worry about the algorithm dropping your leads through the floor or where your next client is coming from again. This is a strategy and a framework that's as easy as drag and drop which will keep delivering to your business every after year.

Business Reflection Planning - super catchy title right? Before you hit next... 
If you’re feeling a little stuck with business growth or you want to sit down and plan your goals for next year but you're not sure where to start, this episode is the place to be!  Today’s episode was born after some pessimistic news about the global economy this week (thanks Elon), I then asked my clients some pretty tough questions. But I also made a promise, I said we don’t need to be quite so pessimistic. 
We don’t know how things are going to unfold or what’s going to happen - when isn't there uncertainty? What I do know for certain is that your business success is dependent on being grounded in clarity, clear focus, and conscious action-taking.  To help you with all of the above and deliver on my promise, in this episode, we’re taking some time out for some Business Reflection Planning. This is a powerful process so I hope you stay tuned.  You can download the full workshop and the workbook here - workwithsian.co.uk/guides A special mention and thanks to our episode sponsor, Practice.

This podcast episode is the place to be if you really want to sky rocket your sales and business to greatness but you’re not entirely sure what to do next. In my candid conversation with Wall Street and Amazon Best-Selling author of ‘From Grassroots to Greatness’, Lloyed Lobo we have taken a deep dive into real tactics and solid frameworks you can use right now to build your business.
I asked Lloyed what he’d say to small client-service business owners if they felt a bit stuck, needed more leads, more revenue and had to do a bit of a turnaround, what he’d say.
 
That conversation led us to talking about growth versus scaling and how to know when you’re ready to scale.
 
Talk about a masterclass, tune in for this and be sure to connect with Lloyed on LinkedIn.

How do you get what you really want? 
After we finished talking about snowboarding, Alex Chisnall and I recorded a wonderful conversation about life and creating a vision. If you don’t know Alex, his story from flight attendant to the number 1 business advisor to Richard Branson’s Virgin start-up is epic and I couldn't have been more excited to have him on the Growth Code® podcast.  
I’m not sure how we jammed so much into this… From embracing resilience, and self-doubt to the mistruths around limiting beliefs, operating outside your comfort zone, failing, and adopting the “screw it just do it” mindset. There’s something for everyone to get to where you want to go and get you into action.

A few clients have brought this up in coaching calls, they’ve asked “Sian, how do I deal with a difficult client?”
 
For business owners and particularly when you have a small team, a difficult client can really rock the boat. It’s not cut and dry, you can’t run around resigning PITA clients (that’s a pain in the a**) because they possibly bring in a good chunk of revenue. On the flip side, they could be hurting your team and creating a horrid working environment. How you handle the situation reflects on your leadership.
 
Let’s dive into three ways that you can handle a difficult client and explore when it really is time to let them go.
